REGULATION OF ARTERIAL STIFFNESS: CELLULAR, MOLECULAR AND NEUROGENIC MECHANISMS☆

The lasting legacy of Donald McDonald has been in the establishment of physiological and biophysical principles of the relation of blood pressure and flow in arteries. This relation is determined by physical properties of arteries, among which wall stiffness is a dominant parameter. Increased arteri...
